Excerpt from book: CHAPTER III. AN UNCONTROLLABLE IMPULSE. Are Mr. and Mrs. Graham at home ? asked Harry, on arriving at the Rectory; of course after the orthodox fashion of people in love, asking first for those whom he did not wish to see. No, sir, the yare gone out for a walk since the afternoon, sir. Is Miss Graham at home? that was inevitably the next question, as Miss Graham had no brothers or sisters, or anything in fact but her canary, and Harry came to theconclusion that it would never do to ask to see him. Yes, sir; will you walk in, sir? Harry thought Miss Graham would perhaps do as well, and so was shown into the room where she was sitting. I am so much obliged to you, Miss Graham, for your kind note; I thought you would relent sooner or later, or at least sufficiently to tell me in what I have offended, said Harry, confidently taking her offered hand. I shall be still more obliged to you, Mr. Henry, if you will kindly inform me to what note you refer? said Lizzy, coldly withdrawing it. This note which you sent me about an hour ago, said Harry, fumbling in his pocket. I am not aware that I have added to my numerous acts of folly the crowning one of writing to you. You sent me this'? said Harry, holding up the little lavender envelope. Most decidedly not. Harry re-opened the note, and to his utter astonishment, read as follows: ? Thursday evening. MY Dear Mr. Henry? Why have you not been to call upon me to-day to enquire after my health. I might be very ill after the dance, for what you know, you naughty boy: come up this evening, or else to-morrow. L. G. The Grange, half-past seven o'clock. What a fool I am muttered Harry. To his utter disgust he found he had mistaken the signature of Laura Ga...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first illustrated monograph dedicated to the history of the House of Worth, the world’s pioneering haute couture label Arriving in Paris in 1845, at the age of twenty and with only a few francs in his pocket, Charles Frederick Worth would go on to build the most prominent, innovative, and successful fashion house of the century. He was inspired by a love of fine art, luxurious fabrics, and his vision of the female ideal, and was the first to set out to dictate new styles and silhouettes to his elite clientele— not the other way around. He hosted them in his rue de la Paix salons, which included groundbreaking sportswear and maternity departments as well as silk, velvet, and brocade rooms, and a special salon with closed shutters and gas lighting designed to allow clients to try on ball gowns in lighting conditions precisely matched to those of the event at which they would be worn. Organized chronologically and illustrated with striking ensembles, paintings, and documents sourced from both private family archives and the best fashion collections from museums around the world, The House of Worth is an inspiring tribute to the house that started it all.

Book excerpt: THIS BOOK WILL MAKE YOUR BIRTH BETTER. IT IS FOR EVERY WOMAN AND EVERY TYPE OF BIRTH. AS FEATURED ON DRAGONS' DEN. 'Siobhan manages to completely demystify hypnobirthing, making it accessible and relevant to all women and all births. This book will be a complete game changer and I will be recommending it to mums-to-be from now on' Sarah Turner, author of The Unmumsy Mum Expert hypnobirthing teacher and founder of The Positive Birth Company Siobhan Miller has made it her mission to change the way women around the world approach and experience birth. Through her teaching she seeks to educate and empower women - and their birth partners - so that they can enjoy amazing and positive birth experiences, however they choose to bring their babies into the world. In this book, Siobhan debunks common myths about hypnobirthing and explains why she believes it can make every type of birth a better experience - from a water birth at home to an unplanned caesarean in theatre. So, what is hypnobirthing? Essentially, it's a form of antenatal education, an approach to birth that is both evidence-based and logical. Hypnobirthing certainly doesn't involve being hypnotised; instead, it teaches you how your body works on a muscular and hormonal level when in labour and how you can use various relaxation techniques to ensure you are working with your body (rather than against it), making birth more efficient and comfortable. Siobhan's advice and guidance will change your mindset and enable you to navigate your birth with practical tools that ensure you feel calm and in control throughout. By the time you finish this book you'll feel relaxed, capable and genuinely excited about giving birth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did birth control become legitimate in the United States? One kitchen table at a time, contends Trent MacNamara, who charts how Americans reexamined old ideas about money, time, transcendence, nature, and risk when considering approaches to family planning. By the time Margaret Sanger and other activists began campaigning for legal contraception in the 1910s, Americans had been effectively controlling fertility for a century, combining old techniques with explosive new ideas. Birth Control and American Modernity charts those ideas, capturing a movement that relied less on traditional public advocacy than dispersed action of the kind that nullified Prohibition. Acting in bedrooms and gossip corners where formal power was weak and moral feeling strong, Americans of both sexes gradually normalized birth control in private, then in public, as part of a wider prioritization of present material worlds over imagined eternal continuums. The moral edifice they constructed, and similar citizen movements around the world, remains tenuously intact.
